Kelso 2010 Working Cart Course

Judge - Glynis Sawyers

Thank you for inviting me to judge the working carts at your fun day at Kelso. A total of 17 Bernese took part in the three classes plus a Newfoundland, an Australian shepherd and a Great Swiss all of which worked nfc. A big thank you to all who took part, also to those who helped by stewarding during the day – Tom, Lynne, Lee and Julie who kept me straight with the paperwork and presentations at the end. We started early in the day so that we would not keep everyone hanging around at the end so thanks to those competitors who worked their dogs before the opening parade and to everyone else for keeping things moving during the day. Well done to those of you who passed, my apologies to those of you who didn’t which included my house guest for the week but she forgave me (begrudgingly) as she needed the bed, the food and the chauffeur for various outings during the following week !! If only some silly beggar hadn’t built a boundary wall you could have turned round in the road !!
